Problem:
- Since #28678, pre-formatted text in the online documentation do not
render whitespaces correctly: should be pre-like text, but shown like
normal paragraph (see #28754).
- Code blocks with long lines should not be wrapped (e.g. see
|dev-vimpatch-list-management|).
Solution:
- Use `white-space: pre-wrap`. Compared to `white-space: pre`, this
option will make long lines including a very long URL wrapped.
This properly fixes#28754 and #28678.
- Use horizontal scrollbar for the code blocks that are horizontally too
long, instead of wrapping text. This will make the code easy to read
while the pre-text block not interfering with the navigation bar.
Problem:
On the page: https://neovim.io/doc/user/dev_vimpatch.html
The links extend beyond the container and thus end up behind the navigation to the right.
Solution:
Add these lines to get_help_html.lua:
white-space: normal;
word-wrap: break-word;

Problem:
While LuaCATS's generics system are still considered WIP by luals, they
currently support type captured generics.
See "Capture with Backtick" example:
https://luals.github.io/wiki/annotations/#generic
Solution:
Add support for it in the LuaCATS grammar
- Sort sections according to custom preference instead of
alphabetically. It is ordered according to "most relevant" to "least
relevant" to users.
- Sort commits alphabetically
- Don't uppercase the first letter of the commit message
Specifically, functions that are run in the context of the test runner
are put in module `test/testutil.lua` while the functions that are run
in the context of the test session are put in
`test/functional/testnvim.lua`.
Closes https://github.com/neovim/neovim/issues/27004.
Problem:
Besides being redundant with vim.iter():flatten(), `tbl_flatten` has
these problems:
- Has `tbl_` prefix but only accepts lists.
- Discards some results! Compare the following:
- iter.flatten():
```
vim.iter({1, { { a = 2 } }, { 3 } }):flatten():totable()
```
- tbl_flatten:
```
vim.tbl_flatten({1, { { a = 2 } }, { 3 } })
```
Solution:
Deprecate tbl_flatten.
Note:
iter:flatten() currently fails ("flatten() requires a list-like table")
on this code from gen_lsp.lua:
local anonym = vim.iter({ -- remove nil
anonymous_num > 1 and '' or nil,
'---@class ' .. anonymous_classname,
}):flatten():totable()
Should we enhance :flatten() to work for arrays?
- Added `@inlinedoc` so single use Lua types can be inlined into the
functions docs. E.g.
```lua
--- @class myopts
--- @inlinedoc
---
--- Documentation for some field
--- @field somefield integer
--- @param opts myOpts
function foo(opts)
end
```
Will be rendered as
```
foo(opts)
Parameters:
- {opts} (table) Object with the fields:
- somefield (integer) Documentation
for some field
```
- Marked many classes with with `@nodoc` or `(private)`.
We can eventually introduce these when we want to.
Then we can just load metadata in C as a single msgpack blob. Which also
can be used directly as binarly data, instead of first unpacking all the
functions and ui_events metadata to immediately pack it again, which was
a bit of a silly walk (and one extra usecase of `msgpack_rpc_from_object`
which will get yak shaved in the next PR)
runtime(sh): Update ftplugin, fixvim/vim#14101 (vim/vim#14102)
Add the 'b' flag to 'comments', so that the shebang line is not detected as comment.
Fixesvim/vim#14101.

Problem:
The documentation flow (`gen_vimdoc.py`) has several issues:
- it's not very versatile
- depends on doxygen
- doesn't work well with Lua code as it requires an awkward filter script to convert it into pseudo-C.
- The intermediate XML files and filters makes it too much like a rube goldberg machine.
Solution:
Re-implement the flow using Lua, LPEG and treesitter.
- `gen_vimdoc.py` is now replaced with `gen_vimdoc.lua` and replicates a portion of the logic.
- `lua2dox.lua` is gone!
- No more XML files.
- Doxygen is now longer used and instead we now use:
- LPEG for comment parsing (see `scripts/luacats_grammar.lua` and `scripts/cdoc_grammar.lua`).
- LPEG for C parsing (see `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua`)
- Lua patterns for Lua parsing (see `scripts/luacats_parser.lua`).
- Treesitter for Markdown parsing (see `scripts/text_utils.lua`).
- The generated `runtime/doc/*.mpack` files have been removed.
- `scripts/gen_eval_files.lua` now instead uses `scripts/cdoc_parser.lua` directly.
- Text wrapping is implemented in `scripts/text_utils.lua` and appears to produce more consistent results (the main contributer to the diff of this change).
Problem:
When a function has multiple signatures, putting its tag at the last one
may make one think that's its only signature.
Solution:
When a function has multiple signatures, put its tag at the first one.
Implement api_keydict_to_dict as the complement to api_dict_to_keydict
Fix a conversion error when nvim_get_win_config gets called from lua,
where Float values "x" and "y" didn't get converted to lua numbers.
- Consistently use the variable CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to select build type.
- Remove broken `doc_html` target.
- Remove swap files created by oldtest when cleaning.
- Only rerun `lintdoc` if any documentation files has changed.
- Add type annotations, fix most of the type warnings.
- Fix a minor bug on `spell_ignore_files`: nil error when an invalid
spelling is found but the file is not ignored.
Summary: Separate the lint job (`make lintdoc`) to validate runtime/doc,
it is no longer as a part of functionaltest (help_spec).
Build (cmake) and CI:
- `make lintdoc`: validate vimdoc files and test-generate HTML docs.
CI will run this as a part of the "docs" workflow.
- `scripts/lintdoc.lua` is added as an entry point (executable script)
for validating vimdoc files.
scripts/gen_help_html.lua:
- Move the tests for validating docs and generating HTMLs from
`help_spec.lua` to `gen_help_html`. Added:
- `gen_help_html.run_validate()`.
- `gen_help_html.test_gen()`.
- Do not hard-code `help_dir` to `build/runtime/doc`, but resolve from
`$VIMRUNTIME`. Therefore, the `make lintdoc` job will check doc files
on `./runtime/doc`, not on `./build/runtime/doc`.
- Add type annotations for gen_help_html.
Using CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is unreliable as it's a cache variable,
meaning the users previous value will be used if not supplied. Instead,
use the `--prefix` flag which is guaranteed to always work.
